Generate strong, cryptographically secure passwords with customizable length and character options. Perfect for creating secure passwords for online accounts.

Why Use a Strong Password?
  • Security: Strong passwords protect your accounts from brute-force attacks
  • Privacy: Secure passwords prevent unauthorized access to your data
  • Randomness: Cryptographically random passwords are unpredictable
  • Customizable: Configure length and character types to meet requirements
Password Best Practices
  1. Use at least 16 characters for maximum security
  2. Include a mix of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols
  3. Never reuse passwords across different accounts
  4. Store passwords securely using a password manager
  5. Change passwords regularly, especially after security incidents

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Generated passwords are extremely secure when created using cryptographic random number generators. Our tool creates passwords with high entropy (randomness) that would take billions of years to crack using brute-force attacks. A 16-character password with mixed character types has over 95 bits of entropy, making it virtually uncrackable with current technology.

A strong password has: (1) At least 12-16 characters length, (2) Mix of uppercase and lowercase letters, (3) Numbers and special characters, (4) No dictionary words or personal information, (5) Completely random and unpredictable. The longer and more random, the stronger the password.

Yes! Special characters significantly increase password strength by expanding the character set. A password with letters, numbers, and symbols has 95 possible characters per position instead of just 62 (letters + numbers). This exponentially increases the time needed to crack the password. However, ensure the service you're using accepts special characters.

Don't try to remember them! Use a password manager like Bitwarden, 1Password, or LastPass to securely store all your passwords. Password managers encrypt your passwords and only require you to remember one master password. This way, you can use unique, complex passwords for every account without memorization.

Yes, if the generator runs client-side (in your browser) and doesn't send passwords to any server. Our password generator creates passwords entirely in your browser using JavaScript - no data is transmitted or stored. However, always verify the tool's privacy policy and use HTTPS connections. For maximum security, you can also use offline password generators.

Modern security guidance suggests changing passwords only when: (1) There's evidence of a breach, (2) You suspect compromise, (3) You shared the password, or (4) The password is weak. Frequent mandatory changes often lead to weaker passwords. Instead, focus on using strong, unique passwords with 2FA enabled. If you use a password manager with strong passwords, annual changes are sufficient.
